Now Accepting Applications: The Advanced Endoscopic Spine Fellowship at Excel Neurosurgery & Spine in Honolulu, HI

Master the future of ultra-minimally invasive spine care.

Your residency established the standard of care.  This fellowship trains the surgeons who will redefine it. Endoscopic spine surgery is the fastest-growing frontier in operative spine care, yet high-volume, hands-on endoscopic training remains incredibly rare in traditional academic settings.

At Excel Neurosurgery & Spine, we are bridging that gap.

We are currently seeking one exceptional, board-eligible Orthopedic or Neurological Surgeon for a rigorous, 12-month Endoscopic Spine Fellowship. Based entirely in our state-of-the-art Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC), this program is designed to transform competent graduates into elite, independent endoscopic specialists.

What Makes This Fellowship Different

Unlike traditional fellowships, training at Excel Health occurs primarily in a high-efficiency ambulatory surgery center environment with direct exposure to:
  • Same-day surgery workflows
  • High-volume endoscopic case experience
  • Real-world decision making between endoscopic, MIS and fusion approaches
  • Multidisciplinary collaboration across orthopedic, spine, neurosurgery, pain and anesthesia
  • Emerging technologies including robotic-assisted instrumentation and advanced navigation systems

Why Train With Us?

  • Unrivaled Technology Access: Step out of the academic red tape and into a cutting-edge ASC. You will train daily on the latest, integrated intraoperative navigation, robotics, and specialized endoscopic burr and RF systems.
  • A Phased, Comprehensive Curriculum: You won’t just hold the camera. Through intensive dry-labs, cadaver training, and high-volume clinical cases, you will master the transforaminal and interlaminar approaches with both uniportal and biportal techniques. Progress from targeted lumbar discectomies/decompressions to cervical/ thoracic, and ultimately, endoscopic fusions (Endo-TLIF).
  • The Business of Endoscopy: Mastering the scope is only half the battle; getting paid for it is the other. Unlike traditional academic fellowships, we teach you the exact Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) strategies required to run a private practice. You will learn how to navigate unlisted CPT codes, win peer-to-peer reviews, and negotiate commercial ASC carve-outs.
  • The Outpatient Edge: Learn how to safely and efficiently transition complex, multi-level spinal pathology out of the hospital and into the ASC using awake and enhanced recovery (ERAS) protocols.

“The future of spine surgery isn’t just minimally invasive, it’s endoscopic. We are looking for a surgeon who is ready to lead that charge.”

Program Details & Requirements

  • Duration: 12 Months (August 1, 2026 – July 31, 2027)
  • Location: Honolulu, HI
  • Eligibility: Must have successfully completed an ACGME-accredited residency in Orthopedic Surgery or Neurological Surgery and be eligible for a Hawaii medical license.
